This book tries to explain what Islam is and what it means for everyone. He tries to show that Islam is the way of nature for creation in general and for man in particular. To discover Islam is to return to its natural disposition. To understand Islam correctly is to understand something about the true meaning and purpose of life. To live according to Islam is to live according to universal natural values and to fulfill one's needs and obligations, in all simplicity.

This book is, of course, only a simple introduction. It is intended for all those, Muslims or not, who wish to understand the main concerns of Islam and the foundations on which it rests.
